Latrobe City Council is implementing various sustainability initiatives to combat global warming, including the use of groundwater for heating at the Gippsland Regional Aquatic Centre, which saves significant gas and reduces carbon emissions. A biogas project at the local landfill generates electricity, while the replacement of streetlights with energy-efficient models further lowers greenhouse gas emissions. The council aims for net zero emissions by 2035, with plans for increased renewable energy use and electrification of facilities and vehicles.
